Steam at the Library: Squishy Circuits!

Past event
Aug 5, 2014, 1 to 4 PM

This Tuesday at the Main Branch of the Aldrich Public Library, we'll be exploring circuitry through playdough! Come build playful and colorful sculptures using conductive play dough. Using jumbo LEDs and batteries we’ll build parallel and series circuits and then use these patterns to build unique sculptures that light up! Learning about circuits has never been so hands-on and accessible to young kids. That said, we know plenty of adults who love playing with Squishy Circuits as much as the youngsters. This activity is recommended for anyone age 3 and up.

This STEAM Module is a part of the Summer 2014 series Vermont Makers and Libraries: Spark a Culture of Innovation. For more information about the series, check out http://steam-e-zine.com/index.php/squishy-circuits.
